I hadn’t given much thought to what Harriet did before the main story started but writing chpt 1 I’ve learned she dropped out of hs boarding school. But where did she go after? Not home! I’m gonna make it easy on myself. She, like me, ended up in the library 😂

I just wrote Harriet’s dad remarried less than a yr ago and she and Bea hadn’t met her or her kids yet. But then I checked my notes and he’d remarried 4 yrs ago. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Guess I’ll fix this tomorrow 😝 Now back to graduate stuff! So much to do 😵‍💫

I admit I phoned in my writing today. I’m just really trying to figure out graduate school stuff right now, ok.

I don’t like walking. I’m out of shape so it doesn’t feel great and I take small steps so it takes forever. 😂 But after I started walking a mini loop once a day I’ve found myself gradually walking more throughout the day.

Last night was awful. Some good news, I should publish a new YouTube video next week! Scripts done, just need to record the voiceover and edit. It’s gonna be a short one, but hopefully my long gen ai video will be ready for next month.

Decided to treat myself and bought new indestructible glasses. Apparently even if run over by a car the frame will be fine! Not the lens though 😂

I woke up to find my body practically humming, so full of energy and creativity it’s freaking me out 😂, ended up writing two rough YouTube video scripts. The 2nd one was ROUGH but the 1st I might actually make a video! 😊

Funnily enough my Oura ring says I have an Early Evening chronotype and recommends I sleep 11:40-7:40. But enough about sleep! 😂 Thanks to my wordxword planner I’ve started journaling daily. Surprisingly I’ve actually been enjoying it.

11:51pm felt wrong so I tried going to sleep at 11:35pm last night. I was pretty tired so I just passed out. 😂 I’m still tired today but I feel so much better. I’m curious how long I can keep this up for. Gonna enjoy it before I inevitably self sabotage 😝

I asked Gemini why I was so sleepy despite going to bed earlier and basically it’s bc we have these 90 min sleep cycles and I’m waking up midway through one so I need to go to bed at either 10:21pm, 11:51pm, or 1:21 am. That or change what time I wake up…

Back to work tomorrow 😮‍💨 I’m going to miss having so much free time just to read.

Wrote 114 words. Almost didn’t, started wondering if 5 sentences wasn’t tiny enough. Thankfully that wasn’t the case today. But maybe I’ll just let Sundays be my day of rest 😂

Thought I'd try writing my story again lol. I've been in a mini habit kick so I'm attempting a mini habit of writing 5 sentences a day. It got me to write today and really it wasn't so bad. The words just flowed, then I got hungry lol.

Stranger Things vol 5 had so many great moments, especially moments of 2 characters just talking to each other.

My brother just sent me this. I feel so seen 😂 It’s about a guy trying to lose weight in 2025 but ending the year heavier than he started.

Finally wrote something! And I also finally started writing a script for a YouTube video on my experience using gen ai. Feels like I’m slowly getting back in it!

I’ve been concerned about my sleep for awhile now, but this vacation I found myself waking up at 9/7am feeling too awake to go back to sleep even on nights I slept 3ish hrs! But last night I did my evening routine for the 1st time in months and slept like a baby, didn’t wake up till 1pm. 😂 🤞🏽 4 2nite

Tiny Habits mentions waking up each morning and saying out loud some variation of “Its going to be a great day.” Is it bad that I don’t want to? 😅

Currently reading Tiny Habits & Mini Habits for Fitness. It’s too early to say but it’s interesting to see the differences each author has on the same topic. TH mentions celebrating each success to help motivate etc while MHfF mentions the goal is to make habits feel normal & uneventful.

Since I’m alone this Christmas Day I planned to binge the new Stranger Things eps… only to find out they won’t drop until 8pm 😭

I thought I was lonely but now that it’s just me at home I realize this is loneliness. I want to talk, I want to talk, I want to talk! Verbally not through txt or over the phone and w someone I love! One more reason to consider moving back to NJ I guess. 😮‍💨
